Not trying to be a d*ck but with all the threads you make, why didn't you ask about H100 noise before buying? A 40$ Thermalright Macho can easily keep that cpu cool at 4.5Ghz with about half the noise.

In your current situation I would get the Corsair SP120 Quiet Edition fans. Get a 3-pin y-splitter too and control the speed using Speedfan.

Macgruber if you have 140mm fan slots on the rear or the top, take a look at H90. It's a lot quieter than H100 and performs about the same.

it will not perform about the same, dimensions provide common sense of statistic heat reduction.

and the corsair h100 comes with 2500rpm fans, are you serious?

not to be a d*ck, but i dont sit around waiting for kids like you to give me $0.02, when i need it i ask for it

thanks but it seems noone here has a thermaltake water 2.0 and i will just buy it to try it

the store i bought it from doesnt do refunds for cash on open computer products, so id need to pick between the thermal or corsair

and with the thousands of issues on corsair products, im not going to wait for mine to get worse,i can hear the pump, and when i stick my ear on the case i hear it grinding, its not THAT loud enough to care like the ones in the video, but i care because i paid for it i need to get what i paid for and the h100 isnt it

The H100 - there was a big to do about the pump in them making noise, and the fix involved giving it just an ever so slightly lower voltage. Maybe just an inline resistor, I don't remember. Supposedly cavitation noise due to power supplies putting out a little higher voltage than intended, and not anything mechanical ie actual grinding. A little slower pump speed solved it. I guess if you can just swap it w/ something else for free, cool. FYI though if it doesn't end up being easy to do that.

yeah man its on sale for 80$ at the store but i payed 130$ for it

i did not pay 130$ to have to do electric work that they blame my power supply on. i hate when companies dont take responsibility

Screw corsair im returning their h100 and returning the coolermaster 932 and buying
a thermaltake level gt LCS which comes with a REAL water cooling system and a even nicer case

to be honest i spent like 180 on the case and 130 on the h100 thats 310. i have no problem dishing out another 50 for a system that wont be making noise from its pump and ill actually have a water cooling system which i can expand as an investment instead of a 130$ CPU cooling only solution!

honestly considering returning this case unopened for the full refund, buying the Level 10 gt and buying a kit from XSPC for water cooling

Gl on your new build thou, hopefully we only read the results in one thread and not six. 8-)

theres no restocking fees for unopened items unfortunately at this store and if the order isnt shipped out tomorrow i can still cancel it which i might

Btw, noone warned me, posting 2 days after i make a post with an opinion based off other opinions doesnt really help,

i dont sit here and say you warned me? please post your computer, level of education, and youre current employer, so its a double standard, everyone hates, everyone has opinions, but noone likes to back them up

edit- not sure how the high/medium/low speed fans work on the RS/EX/RX... im guessing i cant adjust my speeds of fans? i know every system has pros and cons but, it doesnt sound good if im buying a preset fan speed and i have to go with either loud rpm fans or low rpm fans.... not a good look

I wouldn't recommend the XSPC kit as it would require a bit of knowledge in watercooling and it isn't pre-installed out of the box. If you're uncertain about self assembly, I'd suggest sticking to AIO's. Swiftech offers a decent AIO that comes close to a custom loop.

I consider air cooling and AIOs to be install and forget solutions, they're proven to work almost flawlessly out of the factory. Watercooling, even those that are made simpler like the XSPC kits requires attention to detail when installing and periodical maintenance.

i may not know how to configure bios settings on an overclock, but installing a watercooling system isnt hard or difficult

i can replace a car radiator, and internal engine parts, so a water cooling system will be the least of my worries

thanks for your opinion

with the types of fans, placing of fans, mesh fan gaurds to clean, removable drive bays, swing out door i find it to be amazing case

Which case do you have? i enjoy peoples opinions, but i prefer opinions that cant be corrected with factual information.

the ferrari enzo is a horrible car (<-- lol)

according to swiftech, it should be available at the end of the month.
